“…The variations observed in the mandible are significant in terms of surgical operations involving the mandible. Due to the found variations, bleeding, anesthesia failure, and neurosensory disorders can occur (2)(3)(4)(5). One of the anatomical variations studied in the mandible is the TCC, which was described by Ossenberg in 1986 (6).…”

Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the presence of temporal crest canal in a group of Turkish population according to gender using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT). Materials and Methods: CIBT images of 515 individuals were retrospectively analysed. Twenty-seven of these images were excluded because they did not meet the study criteria. All images were analysed in multiplanar planes. The presence of temporal crest canal was recorded according to age and gender. Data were analysed with Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 25. Pearson Chi-Square test was used to evaluate the relationship between categorical variables. Results: 488 KIBT images were analysed and 2.6% of the total temporal crest canal was detected. Right temporal crest canal rate was 1.2% and left temporal crest canal rate was 1.4%. The rate of temporal crest canal was 1.4% in males and 1.2% in females. There was no statistically significant difference in the rate of presence of right and left temporal crest canal in males and females (p > 0.05). Conclusion: CIBT is an important radiological method for the detection of temporal crest canal. The rate of presence of temporal crest canal did not show a significant difference between genders.

“…The retromolar canal is a neurovascular anatomic variation consisting of a bifurcation of the mandibular canal towards the retromolar area, after the third molar, usually associated with a foramen situated on the retromolar fossa (1,5).…”

“…However, it has been shown more recently that the presence of retromolar canal may be frequent, with a variable prevalence according to the study methods (e.g. in dry skulls and imaging exams) (3,5,6) and the population studied (3,6).…”

The aim of this study was to observed the anesthetic efficacy of the alveolar nerve block on nine patients that CBCT diagnosed unilateral retromolar canal on a double-blind, split-mouth approach. The assessments of patient response to thermal (pulp vitality test) and pressure (compression of soft tissue) stimuli were carried out before and 5 minutes after the inferior alveolar nerve block procedure, using both visual analog scale (VAS) and Mc Gill pain questionnaires (McG). The mean percentage of patient response decreased after alveolar nerve block, according to both VAS and McG, and was statistically similar among hemi mandibles with and without retromolar canal (Wilcoxon>0.05); however, those without retromolar canal presented greater reduction in patient response in 6 out of 9 cases. Therefore, the retromolar canal is not a determinant factor of inferior alveolar nerve block failure.
